Parameter Explanation
Port Control Enables or disables the 802.11a port.
SSID (Network The 802.11a radio communicates with other 802.11a radios with the
Name) same network name. Use this parameter to assign a network name to
the access point, and then assign the same network name to the wireless
end devices that will connect to the access point. The network name is
case-sensitive and can be no more than 32 alphanumeric characters.
Speed Mode Determines if you want to double the transmission rates by doubling
the bandwidth. If you choose Turbo, the number of available channels
is reduced to 42, 50, and 58.
Choose 802.11 compliant if you want to use normal IEEE 802.11a
transmission rates.
Frequency The frequency is the particular frequency within the 5.15 to 5.35 GHz
range that the access point uses to transmit and receive packets. The
available frequencies are country-dependent and are determined by the
radio. This parameter is only available if this radio is a master radio.
You may want to use a single frequency to isolate the installation to
part of the band; for example, use a single frequency if other DS
systems or multiple microwave ovens are in use in the area.
If you set the Speed Mode to Turbo, you can only choose 42, 50, or 58.
